UFC Just Signed A Guy With The Most Padded Record We’ve Ever Seen

Twenty-six-year-old Californian Lightweight Dashon “Fly Boy” Johnson (9-0) has been signed by the UFC to take on fellow newcomer Jake Matthews (4-0) on June 28th at UFC Fight Night 43 in Aukland, New Zealand.

Both guys come in with perfect records, but once I started looking at just who Johnson had fought, and what their records were, I was quite surprised at what I found.

First of all, all nine of Johnson’s pro bouts were fought in the Xplode Fight Series organization in California. That got me curious, then when I clicked on each of his opponents, here’s what I found (from first to last):

there's a few guys out there like that they typically step up and fight on very short term notice (as in the day of the event) that keep a fight happening that may have otherwise been scrapped. If they are not suffering significant injuries repeatedly and the fights are on the level no harm in them fighting.
